University of Wollongong commerce student and model hopeful Tom Penfold will at least make it through the first elimination episode of Make Me A Supermodel tomorrow night.Penfold, a self-described brat with a smouldering gaze, is one of 14 contestants on the Channel 7 reality television series, hosted by Jennifer Hawkins and male model Tyson Beckford.Viewers will decide tomorrow night whether Bakary Sereme, Isaac Keenan or Sara Longman should be voted out of the "model house".Before entering the house, where the contestants live throughout the series, Penfold, 19, said he had a reasonable chance of winning as he "rated" himself as a looker.He has already painted himself as a spoilt brat with a taste for designer labels, an image he said he nurtured to attract the judges' attention.But fans of the program aren't so certain. "You've got to at least be hot if you want to be arrogant, fool," said one fan on an online forum.
